Question

. When Rutherford aimed a beam of alpha particles at a sheet of gold foil, most of the alpha particles pass through the foil. What conclusions did Rutherford make regarding the structure of the atom?

Answer 1

Answer:Conclusion of Rutherford's scattering experiment:

Most of the space inside the atom is empty because most of the α-particles passed through the gold foil without getting deflected. Very few particles were deflected from their path, indicating that the positive charge of the atom occupies very little space.
